Dawud Miracle

Thanks for the mention, Karin. You brought up The Knowing-Doing Gap on my site. As someone with no lack of ideas, I'm definitely going to take a look at it.

Hi Dawud

Oh you should, definitely. It's got me hooked!

Karin,

The reason consultants are paid twice as much as plant managers is that they are generally used as weapons in turf wars between management groups, and everyone knows you don't skimp on weaponry in a fight to the death! ;-)

Karin H.

Hi Mike

You should really read "The Knowing-Doing Gap", then you see why turf wars between managements groups are even more disastrous for a company than paying over the odds for a consultant (who only talks the talk and doesn't make you walk the walk)!

But in the main stream normal company practice you are absolutelt right of course ;-)

Mike

Hi Karin,

I DO know the cost of management turf wars, unfortunately from personal experience (as principal and consultant). That's one of the reasons I am such a big fan of "Good to Great" and the concepts therein; especially "First Who, Then What"! And I'm not afraid to walk the walk in that regard.

Cheers,

Mike

Hi Mike

Am a great fan of Good to Great too (very much so, that when I'm reading other business advice books I see links back it it alomost every time.
As for walk the walk, (or should it be walk the talk?) personally I think I'm getting there ;-)
